Abstract: | The kernel moisture content (MC) distribution of five varieties of double season rice was tested during the process of harvesting, drying, and tempering. Significant kernel MC variance was found to exist within the panicle. Binodal kernel MC distribution frequency was found at harvest. The MC distribution of five varieties during harvesting and drying showed similar trend of uniformity. To investigate the mechanism of moisture transport among rice kernels under low temperature, the kernel MC distribution of rice planted in Northeastern China was also investigated after stacked for over one month under the temperature of -20°C. The moisture exchange among rice kernels was found greatly influenced by environmental factors. |
